Re: Just Started Prepping For CBRN Situations

Re: Ceramic plates do NOT spall
Yes, but their level iV has always been a ceramic plate. Although, I just double checked and if you’re looking at their level III+ Steel plate, in 11x14 not 10x12, with a build up, you get pretty close to 12lbs.

Re: .223 vs 5.56 Acog reticles
I’ve done some research and am having a hard time finding a straight answer. I see Acog’s listed for .223 and others listed for 5.56.

Re: .223 vs 5.56 Acog reticles
I’ve done some research and am having a hard time finding a straight answer. Didn't do enough research.

Re: Ceramic plates do NOT spall
Not that I disagree about spelling or ceramics being lighter, But Ar500’s heaviest steel plate is only 8 lbs.Gunslinger808 wrote: ↑February 14th, 2021, 6:59 pm Another point for ceramics is weight.
My level IV weigh about 6 pounds each, AR500 plates are about 12 pounds each.
